Adjusted Bowden cable = keeping my foot off the carpet = MPG picked up ?
 

Ok so I adjusted the cable 2 weeks ago. Problem was being in 4th gear by 30mph. I was always driving foot to the carpet and manually holding the shifter, playing paddle-shifting whenever I needed to scoot. Shifts perfectly now and I'm rarely on the carpet..
I filled the car last week but haven't really been driving it much since. I took a customer car or two home for overnight test drives and a Q7 loaner home for the weekend for a trip to Ikea. I decided to top off my tank last night as the anal guy I am, I kinda like to start off the pay period with a full tank so I can go to the next paycheck without needing fuel. Not living paycheck to paycheck, just a dumb thing I do, going 2 weeks without needing fuel. I've been keeping my max speed at 70mph. Well 175 miles on 5.8 gallons = 30.17mpg. My previous average was 23.5-24.5mpg. HOT DAMN !! That nearly equals the Sentra...

NICE! My bio brewer buddy's son is down in TX right now ( USAF) looking for another ranch truck , i.e, Ford diesel. 30.15 mpg on an alternative fuel would be even cooler!

anyway, good show on the TV cable adjustment!

I'd love to try bio or some VO mixed in. At $4.00 gal, I just might fill to 3/4 tank and go to the supermarket and buy 5 gallons of Crisco.... :)
